Example. This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
 
 
The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same.
 
 
Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:
 
                                     
    1 Year   3 Years   5 Years   10 Years    
 
Class A
  $ 735     $ 1,123     $ 1,535     $ 2,680      
Class B
    771       1,132       1,620       2,831      
Class C
    371       832       1,420       3,012      
Class Y
    171       530       913       1,987      
 
You would pay the following expenses if you did not redeem your shares:
 
                                     
    1 Year   3 Years   5 Years   10 Years    
 
Class A
  $ 735     $ 1,123     $ 1,535     $ 2,680      
Class B
    271       832       1,420       2,831      
Class C
    271       832       1,420       3,012      
Class Y
    171       530       913       1,987      
 
Portfolio Turnover. The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 43% of the average value of its portfolio.
 
Principal Investment Strategies of the Fund
The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities.
 
The Fund invests in a diversified portfolio that consists primarily of equity securities of U.S. and foreign issuers that are, in the portfolio managers’ view, attractively valued relative to current or projected earnings, or to the current market value of assets owned by the issuer.
 
The Fund emphasizes investments in the U.S. and in the developed countries of Western Europe and the Pacific Basin. The Fund may invest up to 20% of the Fund’s total assets in issuers located in developing countries.
 
In selecting securities for the Fund, the portfolio managers seek to identify attractively valued issuers with market capitalization in excess of $1 billion. Initial factors considered by the portfolio managers when evaluating potential investments include an issuer’s return on equity, amount of shareholders’ capital and the percentage of earnings paid in dividends, as well as an issuer’s historic earnings stability and overall debt levels.
 
The Fund’s portfolio managers consider selling a security when (1) its share price increases and its internal valuation ranking deteriorates relative to other issuers, (2) its fundamentals deteriorate or (3) it causes the portfolio’s sector or regional weighting relative to its benchmark to fall outside acceptable risk parameters.
 
Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund
As with any mutual fund investment, loss of money is a risk of investing. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit in a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency. The risks associated with an investment in the Fund can increase during times of significant market volatility. The principal risks of investing in the Fund are:
 
Developing Markets Securities Risk. Securities issued by foreign companies and governments located in developing countries may be affected more negatively by inflation, devaluation of their currencies, higher transaction costs, delays in settlement, adverse political developments, the introduction of capital controls, withholding taxes, nationalization of private assets, expropriation, social unrest, war or lack of timely information than those in developed countries.
 
Foreign Securities Risk. The Fund’s foreign investments be affected by changes in the foreign country’s exchange rates; political and social instability; changes in economic or taxation policies; difficulties when enforcing obligations; decreased liquidity; and increased volatility. Foreign companies may be subject to less regulation resulting in less publicly available information about the companies.
 
Management Risk. The investment techniques and risk analysis used by the Fund’s portfolio managers may not produce the desired results.
 
Market Risk. The prices of and the income generated by the Fund’s securities may decline in response to, among other things, investor sentiment; general economic and market conditions; regional or global instability; and currency and interest rate fluctuations.
 
Small- and Mid-Capitalization Risk. Stocks of small and mid sized companies tend to be more vulnerable to adverse developments and may have little or no operating history or track record of success, and limited product lines, markets, management and financial resources. The securities of small and mid sized companies may be more volatile due to less market interest and less publicly available information about the issuer. They also may be illiquid or restricted as to resale, or may trade

less frequently and in smaller volumes, all of which may cause difficulty when establishing or closing a position at a desirable price.
 
Performance Information
The bar chart and performance table provide an indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The performance table compares the Fund’s performance to that of a broad-based securities market benchmark and a peer group benchmark with similar investment objectives of the Fund. The benchmarks may not reflect payment of fees, expenses or taxes. The Fund’s past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of its future performance. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s Web site at www.invesco.com/us.

Ask your salesperson or financial adviser or visit your financial intermediary’s Web site for more information.
 
Investment Objectives, Strategies, Risks and Portfolio Holdings
 
Objective and Strategies
The Fund’s investment objective is long-term growth of capital. The Fund’s investment objective may be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval.
 
The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities.
 
The Fund invests in a diversified portfolio that consists primarily of equity securities of U.S. and foreign issuers that are, in the portfolio managers’ view, attractively valued relative to current or projected earnings, or to the current market value of assets owned by the issuer.
 
The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, in issuers located in at least three countries, including the U.S.
 
The Fund will usually maintain at least 20% of its total assets in U.S. dollar denominated securities.
 
The Fund emphasizes investments in the U.S. and in the developed countries of Western Europe and the Pacific Basin. The Fund may invest up to 20% of the Fund’s total assets in issuers located in developing

countries, i.e, those that are identified as in the initial stages of their industrial cycles.
 
In selecting securities for the Fund, the portfolio managers seek to identify attractively valued issuers with market capitalization in excess of $1 billion. Initial factors considered by the portfolio managers when evaluating potential investments include an issuer’s return on equity, amount of shareholders’ capital and the percentage of earnings paid in dividends, as well as an issuer’s historic earnings stability and overall debt levels. In analyzing potential investments, the portfolio managers conduct research on issuers meeting their criteria and may communicate directly with management.
 
The Fund’s portfolio managers consider selling a security when (1) its share price increases and its relative valuation ranking deteriorates relative to other issuers, (2) its fundamentals deteriorate or (3) it causes the portfolio’s sector or regional weighting relative to its benchmark to fall outside acceptable risk parameters.
 
The Fund may, from time to time, take temporary defensive positions in cash and other securities that are less risky and inconsistent with the Fund’s principal investment strategies in anticipation of or in response to adverse market, economic, political or other conditions. As a result, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.
 
The Fund’s investments in the types of securities described in this prospectus vary from time to time, and at any time, the Fund may not be invested in all types of securities described in this prospectus. Any percentage limitations with respect to assets of the Fund are applied at the time of purchase.
 
Risks
The principal risks of investing in the Fund are:
 
Developing Markets Securities Risk. The prices of securities issued by foreign companies and governments located in developing countries may be impacted by certain factors more than those in countries with mature economies. For example, developing countries may experience higher rates of inflation or sharply devalue their currencies against the U.S. dollar, thereby causing the value of investments issued by the government or companies located in those countries to decline. Governments in developing markets may be relatively less stable. The introduction of capital controls, withholding taxes, nationalization of private assets, expropriation, social unrest, or war may result in adverse volatility in the prices of securities or currencies. Other factors may include additional transaction costs, delays in settlement procedures, and lack of timely information.
 
Foreign Securities Risk. The dollar value of the Fund’s foreign investments may be affected by changes in the exchange rates between the dollar and the currencies in which those investments are traded. The value of the Fund’s foreign investments may be adversely affected by political and social instability in their home countries, by changes in economic or taxation policies in those countries, or by the difficulty in enforcing obligations in those countries. Foreign companies generally may be subject to less stringent regulations than U.S. companies, including financial reporting requirements and auditing and accounting controls. As a result, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies than about U.S. companies. Trading in many foreign securities may be less liquid and more volatile than U.S. securities due to the size of the market or other factors.
 
Management Risk. The investment techniques and risk analysis used by the Fund’s portfolio managers may not produce the desired results.
 
Market Risk. The prices of and the income generated by the Fund’s securities may decline in response to, among other things, investor sentiment; general economic and market conditions; regional or global instability; and currency and interest rate fluctuations.
 
Small- and Mid-Capitalization Risk. Stocks of small and mid sized companies tend to be more vulnerable to adverse developments and may have little or no operating history or track record of success, and limited product lines, markets, management and financial resources. The securities of small and mid sized companies may be more volatile due to less market interest and less publicly available information about the issuer. They also may be illiquid or restricted as to resale, or may trade less frequently and in smaller volumes, all of which may cause difficulty when establishing or closing a position at a desirable price.

Other Information
 
Sales Charges
Purchases of Class A shares of Invesco Global Core Equity Fund are subject to the maximum 5.50% initial sales charge as listed under the heading “Category I Initial Sales Charges” in the “Shareholder Account Information—Initial Sales Charges (Class A Shares Only)” section of this prospectus.
 
Dividends and Distributions
The Fund expects, based on its investment objective and strategies, that its distributions, if any, will consist of ordinary income, capital gains, or some combination of both.
 
Dividends
The Fund generally declares and pays dividends from net investment income, if any, annually.
 
Capital Gains Distributions
The Fund generally distributes long-term and short-term capital gains (net of any capital loss carryovers), if any, at least annually. Capital gains distributions may vary considerably from year to year as a result of the Fund’s normal investment activities and cash flows. During a time of economic downturn, a Fund may experience capital losses and unrealized depreciation in value of investments, the effect of which may be to reduce or eliminate capital gains distributions for a period of time. Even though a Fund may experience a current year loss, it may nonetheless distribute prior year capital gains.

Hypothetical Investment and Expense Information
 
In connection with the final settlement reached between Invesco and certain of its affiliates with certain regulators, including the New York Attorney General’s Office, the SEC and the Colorado Attorney General’s Office (the settlement) arising out of certain market timing and unfair pricing allegations made against Invesco and certain of its affiliates, Invesco and certain of its affiliates agreed, among other things, to disclose certain hypothetical information regarding investment and expense information to Fund shareholders. The chart below is intended to reflect the annual and cumulative impact of the Fund’s expenses, including investment advisory fees and other Fund costs, on the Fund’s returns over a 10-year period. The example reflects the following:
  n  You invest $10,000 in the fund and hold it for the entire 10-year period;
  n  Your investment has a 5% return before expenses each year;
  n  Hypotheticals both with and without any applicable initial sales charge applied; and
  n  There is no sales charge on reinvested dividends.
 
There is no assurance that the annual expense ratio will be the expense ratio for the Fund classes for any of the years shown. This is only a hypothetical presentation made to illustrate what expenses and returns would be under the above scenarios; your actual returns and expenses are likely to differ (higher or lower) from those shown below.

Shareholder Account Information
 
In addition to the Fund, Invesco serves as investment adviser to many other Invesco and Invesco Van Kampen mutual funds that are offered to retail investors (Invesco Funds or Funds). The following information is about all of the Invesco Funds that offer retail share classes.
 
If shares of the Funds are held in an account maintained by an intermediary or in the name of a conduit investment vehicle (and not in the name of an individual investor), the intermediary or conduit investment vehicle may impose rules which differ from, and/or charge a transaction or other fee in addition to, those described in this prospectus.
 
Additional information is available on the Internet at www.invesco.com/us. Click on the link for Accounts & Services, then Service Center, or consult the Fund’s SAI, which is available on that same Web site or upon request free of charge. The Web site is not part of this prospectus.
 
Choosing a Share Class
Each Fund may offer multiple classes of shares and not all Funds offer all share classes discussed herein. Each class represents an interest in the same portfolio of investments. Certain classes have higher expenses than other classes which may lower the return on your investment when compared to a less expensive class. In deciding which class of shares to purchase, you should consider the following attributes of the various share classes, among other things: (i) the eligibility requirements that apply to purchases of a particular class, (ii) the initial sales charges and contingent deferred sales charges (CDSCs), if any, applicable to the class, (iii) the 12b-1 fee, if any, paid by the class, and (iv) any services you may receive from a financial intermediary. Please contact your financial adviser to assist you in making your decision. Please refer to the prospectus fee table for more information on the fees and expenses of a particular Fund’s share classes.

Share Class Eligibility
 
Class A, B, C and Invesco Cash Reserve Shares
Class A, B, C and Invesco Cash Reserve Shares are available to all retail investors, including individuals, trusts, corporations and other business and charitable organizations and eligible employee benefit plans. The share classes offer different fee structures which are intended to compensate financial intermediaries for services provided in connection with the sale of shares and continued maintenance of the customer relationship. You should consider the services provided by your financial adviser and any other financial intermediaries who will be involved in the servicing of your account when choosing a share class.
 
Class B shares are not available as an investment for retirement plans maintained pursuant to Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code). These plans include 401(k) plans (including Invesco Solo 401(k) plans), money purchase pension plans and profit sharing plans. However, plans that have existing accounts invested in Class B shares will continue to be allowed to make additional purchases.
 
Class A2 Shares
Class A2 shares, which are offered only on Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and Invesco Tax-Free Intermediate Fund, are closed to new investors. All references in this prospectus to Class A shares, shall include Class A2 shares, unless otherwise noted.
 
Class A5, B5, C5 and R5 Shares
Class A5, B5, C5 and R5 shares are closed to new investors. Only investors who have continuously maintained an account in Class A5, B5, C5 or R5 of a specific Fund may make additional purchases into Class A5, B5, C5 and R5, respectively, of such specific Fund. All references in this Prospectus to Class A, B, C or R shares of the Invesco Funds, shall include Class A5 (excluding Invesco Money Market Fund), B5, C5, or R5 shares, respectively, of the Invesco Funds, unless otherwise noted. All references in this Prospectus to Invesco Cash Reserve Shares of Invesco Money Market Fund, shall include Class A5 shares of Invesco Money Market Fund, unless otherwise noted.
 
Class P Shares
In addition to the other share classes discussed herein, the Invesco Summit Fund offers Class P shares, which were historically sold only through the AIM Summit Investors Plans I and II (each a Plan and, collectively, the Summit Plans). Class P shares are sold with no initial sales charge and have a 12b-1 fee of 0.10%. However, Class P shares are not sold to members of the general public. Only shareholders who had accounts in the Summit Plans at the close of business on December 8, 2006 may purchase Class P shares and only until the total of their combined investments in the Summit Plans and in Class P shares directly equals the face amount of their former Plan under the 30 year extended investment option. The face amount of a Plan is the combined total of all scheduled monthly investments under the Plan. For a Plan with a scheduled monthly investment of $100.00, the face amount would have been $36,000.00 under the 30 year extended investment option.
 
Class R Shares
Class R shares are generally available only to eligible employee benefit plans. These may include, for example, retirement and deferred compensation plans maintained pursuant to Sections 401, 403, and 457 of the Code; nonqualified deferred compensation plans; health savings accounts maintained pursuant to Section 223 of the Code; and voluntary employees’ beneficiary arrangements maintained pursuant to Section 501(c)(9) of the Code. Retirement plans maintained pursuant to Section 401 generally include 401(k) plans, profit sharing plans, money purchase pension plans, and defined benefit plans. Class R shares are generally not available for individual retirement accounts (IRAs) such as traditional, Roth, SEP, SAR-SEP and SIMPLE IRAs.
 
Class S Shares
Class S shares are limited to investors who purchase shares with the proceeds received from a systematic contractual investment plan redemption within the 12-months prior to purchasing Class S shares, and who purchase through an approved financial intermediary that has an agreement with the distributor to sell Class S shares. Class S shares are not otherwise sold to members of the general public. An investor purchasing Class S shares will not pay an initial sales charge. The investor will no longer be eligible to purchase additional Class S shares at that point where the value of the contributions to the prior systematic contractual investment plan combined with the subsequent Class S share contributions equals the face amount of what would have been the investor’s systematic contractual investment plan under the 30-year investment option. The face amount of a systematic contractual investment plan is the combined total of all scheduled monthly investments under that plan. For a plan with a scheduled monthly investment of $100.00, the face amount would have been $36,000.00 under the 30-year extended investment option.
 
Class Y Shares
Class Y shares are generally available to investors who purchase through a fee-based advisory account with an approved financial intermediary or to any current, former or retired trustee, director, officer or employee (or immediate family members of a current, former or retired trustee, director, officer or employee) of any Invesco Fund or of Invesco Ltd. or any of its subsidiaries. In fee-based advisory programs, a financial intermediary typically charges each investor a fee based on the value of the investor’s account in exchange for servicing that account.
 
Subject to any conditions or limitations imposed on the servicing of Class Y shares by your financial adviser, if you received Class Y shares as a result of a merger or reorganization of a predecessor fund into any of the Funds, you will be permitted to make additional Class Y share purchases.
 
Investor Class Shares
Some of the Funds offer Investor Class shares. Investor Class shares are sold with no initial sales charge and have a maximum 12b-1 fee of 0.25%. Investor Class shares are not sold to members of the general public. Only the following persons may purchase Investor Class shares:
n  Investors who established accounts prior to April 1, 2002, in Investor Class shares who have continuously maintained an account in Investor Class shares (this includes anyone listed in the registration of an account, such as a joint owner, trustee or custodian, and immediate family members of such persons). These investors are referred to as “Investor Class grandfathered investors.”
n  Customers of certain financial intermediaries which have had relationships with the Funds’ distributor or any Funds that offered Investor Class shares prior to April 1, 2002, who have continuously maintained such relationships. These intermediaries are referred to as “Investor Class grandfathered intermediaries.”
n  Eligible employee benefit plans. Investor Class shares are generally not available for IRAs unless the IRA depositor is considered an Investor Class grandfathered investor or the account is opened through an Investor Class grandfathered intermediary.
n  Any current, former or retired trustee, director, officer or employee (or immediate family member of a current, former or retired trustee, director, officer or employee) of any Invesco Fund or of Invesco Ltd. or any of its subsidiaries.
 
Distribution and Service (12b-1) Fees
Except as noted below, each Fund has adopted a distribution plan or distribution plan and service plan pursuant to SEC Rule 12b-1. A 12b-1 plan allows a Fund to pay distribution and service fees to Invesco Distributors, Inc. (Invesco Distributors) to compensate or reimburse, as applicable, Invesco Distributors for its efforts in connection with the sale
 
A-2        The Invesco Funds


 

and distribution of the Fund’s shares and for services provided to shareholders, all or a substantial portion of which are paid to the dealer of record. Because the Funds pay these fees out of their assets on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cause you to pay more than the maximum permitted initial sales charges described in this prospectus.
 
The following Funds and share classes do not have 12b-1 plans:
n  Invesco Tax-Free Intermediate Fund, Class A2 shares.
n  Invesco Money Market Fund, Investor Class shares.
n  Invesco Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Investor Class shares.
n  Premier Portfolio, Investor Class shares.
n  Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio, Investor Class shares.
n  Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio, Investor Class shares.
n  All Funds, Class Y shares
Under the applicable distribution plan or distribution plan and service plan, the Funds may pay distribution and service fees up to the following amounts with respect to each Fund’s average daily net assets with respect to such class:
n  Class A shares: 0.25%
n  Class B shares: 1.00%
n  Class C shares: 1.00%
n  Class P shares: 0.10%
n  Class R shares: 0.50%
n  Class S shares: 0.15%
n  Invesco Cash Reserve Shares: 0.15%
n  Investor Class shares: 0.25%
 
Please refer to the prospectus fee table for more information on a particular Fund’s 12b-1 fees.
 
Initial Sales Charges (Class A Shares Only)
The Funds are grouped into four categories for determining initial sales charges. The “Other Information” section of each Fund’s prospectus will tell you the sales charge category in which the Fund is classified. As used below, the term “offering price” with respect to all categories of Class A shares includes the initial sales charge.

Class A Shares Sold Without an Initial Sales Charge
Certain categories of investors are permitted to purchase and certain intermediaries are permitted to sell Class A shares of the Funds without an initial sales charge because their transactions involve little or no expense. The investors who may purchase Class A shares without paying an initial sales charge include the following:
n  Investors who purchase shares through a fee-based advisory account with an approved financial intermediary or any current or retired trustee, director, officer or employee of any Invesco Fund or of Invesco Ltd. or any of its subsidiaries. In a fee based advisory program, a financial intermediary typically charges each investor a fee based on the value of the investor’s account in exchange for servicing that account.
n  Any investor who purchases their shares with the proceeds of a rollover, transfer or distribution from a retirement plan or individual retirement account for which Invesco Distributors acts as the prototype sponsor to another eligible retirement plan or individual retirement account for which Invesco Distributors acts as the prototype sponsor, to the extent that such proceeds are attributable to the redemption of shares of a Fund held through the plan or account.
n  Certain retirement plans (the “Plan” or “Plans”); provided, however, that such Plans:
  n  a. have assets of at least $1 million; or
  n  b. have at least 100 employees eligible to participate in the Plan; or
  n  c. execute multiple-plan transactions through a single omnibus account per Fund.
n  Any investor who maintains an account in Investor Class shares of a Fund (this includes anyone listed in the registration of an account, such as a joint owner, trustee or custodian, and immediate family members of such persons).
n  Qualified Tuition Programs created and maintained in accordance with Section 529 of the Code.
n  Insurance company separate accounts.
 
No investor will pay an initial sales charge in the following circumstances:
n  When buying Class A shares of Invesco Tax-Exempt Cash Fund and Class A2 shares of Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund or Invesco Tax-Free Intermediate Fund.
n  When reinvesting dividends and distributions.
n  When exchanging shares of one Fund, that were previously assessed a sales charge, for shares of another Fund.
n  As a result of a Fund’s merger, consolidation, or acquisition of the assets of another Fund.
n  Unit investments trusts sponsored by Invesco Distributors or its affiliates.
n  Unitholders of Invesco Van Kampen unit investment trusts that enrolled in the reinvestment program prior to December 3, 2007 to reinvest
 
A-3        The Invesco Funds


 

distributions from such trusts in Class A shares of the Funds. The Funds reserve the right to modify or terminate this program at any time.
 
Reduced Sales Charges and Sales Charge Exceptions
You may qualify for reduced sales charges or sales charge exceptions. Qualifying types of accounts for you and your “Immediate Family” as described in a Fund’s SAI include individual, joint, certain trusts, 529 college savings plan and Coverdell Education Savings, certain retirement plans established for the benefit of an individual, and Uniform Gifts/Transfers to Minor Acts accounts. To qualify for these reductions or exceptions, you or your financial adviser must notify the transfer agent and provide the necessary documentation at the time of purchase that your purchase qualifies for such treatment. Certain individuals and employer-sponsored retirement plans may link accounts for the purpose of qualifying for lower initial sales charges.
 
Purchases of Class A shares of Invesco Tax-Exempt Cash Fund or Invesco Cash Reserve Shares of Invesco Money Market Fund or Investor Class shares of any fund will not be taken into account in determining whether a purchase qualifies for a reduction in initial sales charges pursuant to Rights of Accumulation or Letters of Intent.
 
Rights of Accumulation
You may combine your new purchases of Class A shares of a Fund with other Fund shares currently owned (Class A, B, C, P, R, S or Y) for the purpose of qualifying for the lower initial sales charge rates that apply to larger purchases. The applicable initial sales charge for the new purchase is based on the total of your current purchase and the value of other shares owned based on their current public offering price. The transfer agent may automatically link certain accounts registered in the same name with the same taxpayer identification number for the purpose of qualifying you for lower initial sales charge rates.
 
Letters of Intent
Under a Letter of Intent (LOI), you commit to purchase a specified dollar amount of Class A shares of one or more Funds during a 13-month period. The amount you agree to purchase determines the initial sales charge you pay. If the full amount committed to in the LOI is not invested by the end of the 13-month period, your account will be assessed the higher initial sales charge that would normally be applicable to the total amount actually invested.
 
Reinstatement Following Redemption
If you redeem any class of shares of a Fund, you may reinvest all or a portion of the proceeds from the redemption in the same share class of any Fund in the same Category within 180 days of the redemption without paying an initial sales charge. Class B, P and S redemptions may be reinvested only into Class A shares with no initial sales charge. Class Y redemptions may be reinvested into either Class Y shares or Class A shares with no initial sales charge.
 
This reinstatement privilege does not apply to a purchase made through a regularly scheduled automatic investment plan, such as a purchase by a regularly scheduled payroll deduction or transfer from a bank account.
 
In order to take advantage of this reinstatement privilege, you must inform your financial adviser or the transfer agent that you wish to do so at the time of your investment.
 
Contingent Deferred Sales Charges (CDSCs)
 
CDSCs on Class A Shares and Invesco Cash Reserve Shares of Invesco Money Market Fund
You can purchase $1,000,000 or more (a Large Purchase) of Class A shares of Category I, II and IV Funds without paying an initial sales charge. However, if you redeem these shares prior to 18 months after the date of purchase, they will be subject to a CDSC of 1%.
 
If you currently own Class A shares of a Category I, II or IV Fund, and make additional purchases without paying an initial sales charge that result in account balances of $1,000,000 or more, the additional shares purchased will be subject to an 18-month, 1% CDSC.
 
If Invesco Distributors pays a concession to the dealer of record in connection with a Large Purchase of Class A shares by an employee benefit plan, the Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if all of the plan’s shares are redeemed within one year from the date of the plan’s initial purchase.
 
If you acquire Invesco Cash Reserve Shares of Invesco Money Market Fund or Class A shares of Invesco Tax-Exempt Cash Fund through an exchange involving Class A shares that were subject to a CDSC, the shares acquired as a result of the exchange will continue to be subject to that same CDSC.
 
CDSCs on Class B Shares
Class B shares are sold without an initial sales charge. However, they are subject to a CDSC. If you redeem your shares during the CDSC period, you will be assessed a CDSC as follows, unless you qualify for one of the CDSC exceptions outlined below. The Funds are grouped into seven categories for determining CDSCs. The “Other Information” section of each Fund’s prospectus will tell you the CDSC category in which the Fund is classified.

CDSCs on Class C Shares
Class C shares are sold without an initial sales charge. However, they are subject to a CDSC. If you redeem your shares during the first year since purchase has been made you will be assessed a 1% CDSC, unless you qualify for one of the CDSC exceptions outlined below.
 
CDSCs on Class C Shares—Employee Benefit Plan
Invesco Distributors pays a concession to the dealer of record in connection with a purchase of Class C shares by an employee benefit plan; the Class C shares are subject to a 1.00% CDSC at the time of redemption if all of the plan’s shares are redeemed within one year from the date of the plan’s initial purchase.
 
CDSCs on Class C Shares of Invesco LIBOR Alpha Fund and Invesco Short Term Bond Fund
Class C shares of Invesco LIBOR Alpha Fund and Invesco Short Term Bond Fund are not normally subject to a CDSC. However, if you acquired shares of those Funds through an exchange, and the shares originally purchased were subject to a CDSC, the shares acquired as a result of the exchange will continue to be subject to that same CDSC. Conversely, if you acquire Class C shares of any other Fund as a result of an exchange involving Class C shares of Invesco LIBOR Alpha Fund or Invesco Short Term Bond Fund that were not subject to a CDSC, then the shares acquired as a result of the exchange will not be subject to a CDSC.
 
Computing a CDSC
The CDSC on redemptions of shares is computed based on the lower of their original purchase price or current net asset value, net of reinvested dividends and capital gains distributions. In determining whether to charge a CDSC, shares are accounted for on a first-in, first-out basis, which means that you will redeem shares on which there is no CDSC first and, then, shares in the order of their purchase.
 
CDSC Exceptions
Investors who own shares that are otherwise subject to a CDSC will not pay a CDSC in the following circumstances:
n  If you participate in the Systematic Redemption Plan and withdraw up to 12% of the value of your shares that are subject to a CDSC in any twelve-month period.
n  If you redeem shares to pay account fees.
n  If you are the executor, administrator or beneficiary of an estate or are otherwise entitled to assets remaining in an account following the death or post-purchase disability of a shareholder or beneficial owner and you choose to redeem those shares.
 
There are other circumstances under which you may be able to redeem shares without paying CDSCs.
 
Shares acquired through the reinvestment of dividends and distributions are not subject to CDSCs.
 
The following share classes are sold with no CDSC:
n  Class A shares of Invesco Tax-Exempt Cash Fund.
n  Class A shares of Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and Invesco Tax-Free Intermediate Fund purchased on or after October 21, 2002, and prior to February 1, 2010.
n  Class A2 shares of Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and Invesco Tax-Free Intermediate
n  Invesco Cash Reserve Shares of Invesco Money Market Fund.
n  Investor Class shares of any Fund.
n  Class P shares of Invesco Summit Fund.
n  Class S shares of Invesco Charter Fund, Invesco Conservative Allocation Fund, Invesco Growth Allocation Fund, Invesco Moderate Allocation Fund and Invesco Summit Fund.
n  Class Y shares of any Fund.
 
CDSCs Upon Converting to Class Y Shares
If shares that are subject to a CDSC are converted to Class Y shares, the applicable CDSC will be assessed prior to conversion.
 
Redemption Fees
Certain Funds impose a 2% redemption fee (on redemption proceeds) if you redeem or exchange shares within 31 days of purchase. Please refer to the applicable Fund’s prospectus to determine whether that Fund

imposes a redemption fee. As of the date of this prospectus, the following Funds impose redemption fees:

Invesco Van Kampen International Advantage Fund
Invesco Van Kampen International Growth Fund

The redemption fee will be retained by the Fund from which you are redeeming or exchanging shares, and is intended to offset the trading costs, market impact and other costs associated with short-term money movements in and out of the Fund. The redemption fee is imposed on a first-in, first-out basis, which means that you will redeem shares in the order of their purchase.
 
Redemption fees generally will not be charged in the following circumstances:
n  Redemptions and exchanges of shares held in accounts maintained by intermediaries that do not have the systematic capability to assess the redemption fees.
n  Redemptions and exchanges of shares held by funds of funds, qualified tuition plans maintained pursuant to Section 529 of the Code, variable insurance contracts or separately managed qualified default investment alternative vehicles maintained pursuant to Section 404(c)(5) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA), which use the Funds as underlying investments.
n  Redemptions and exchanges effectuated pursuant to automatic investment rebalancing or dollar cost averaging programs or systematic withdrawal plans.
n  Redemptions requested within 31 days following the death or post-purchase disability of an account owner.
n  Redemptions or exchanges initiated by a Fund.
 
The following shares are not subject to redemption fees, irrespective of whether they are redeemed in accordance with any of the exceptions set forth above:
n  Shares acquired through the reinvestment of dividends and distributions.
n  Shares acquired through systematic purchase plans.
n  Shares acquired in connection with a rollover or transfer of assets from the trustee or custodian of an employee benefit plan to the trustee or custodian of another employee benefit plan.
 
Shares held by employee benefit plans will only be subject to redemption fees if the shares were acquired by exchange and are redeemed by exchange within 31 days of purchase.
 
Some investments in the Funds are made through accounts that are maintained by intermediaries (rather than the Funds’ transfer agent) and some investments are made indirectly through products that use the Funds as underlying investments, such as employee benefit plans, Funds of Funds, qualified tuition plans, and variable insurance contracts (these products are generally referred to as conduit investment vehicles). If shares of the Funds are held in an account maintained by an intermediary or in the name of a conduit investment vehicle (and not in the names of individual investors), the intermediary account or conduit investment vehicle may be considered an individual shareholder of the Funds for purposes of assessing redemption fees. In these cases, the Funds are likely to be limited in their ability to assess redemption fees on transactions initiated by individual investors, and the applicability of redemption fees will be determined based on the aggregate holdings and redemptions of the intermediary account or the conduit investment vehicle.
 
If shares of the Funds are held in an account maintained by an intermediary or in the name of a conduit investment vehicle (and not in the names of individual investors), the intermediary or conduit investment vehicle may impose rules intended to limit short-term money movements in and out of the Funds which differ from those described in this prospectus. In such cases, there may be redemption fees imposed by the intermediary or conduit investment vehicle on different terms (and subject to different exceptions) than those set forth above. Please consult your financial adviser or other financial intermediary for details.
 
The Funds have the discretion to waive the 2% redemption fee if a Fund is in jeopardy of losing its registered investment company qualification for tax purposes.
 
Your financial adviser or other financial intermediary may charge service fees for handling redemption transactions. Your shares also may be subject to a CDSC in addition to the redemption fee.
 
Purchasing Shares
If you hold your shares through a financial intermediary, your eligibility to purchase shares and the terms by which you may purchase, redeem and exchange shares may differ depending on that institution’s policies.
 
Minimum Investments
There are no minimum investments for Class P, R or S shares for fund accounts. The minimum investments for Class A, B, C, Y and Investor Class shares for fund accounts are as follows:

You may stop the Systematic Purchase Plan at any time by giving the transfer agent notice ten days prior to your next scheduled withdrawal. Certain financial advisers and other financial intermediaries may also offer systematic purchase plans.
 
Dollar Cost Averaging
Dollar Cost Averaging allows you to make automatic periodic exchanges, if permitted, from one Fund to another Fund or multiple other Funds. The account from which exchanges are to be made must have a minimum balance of $5,000 before you can use this option. Exchanges will occur on (or about) the day of the month you specify, in the amount you specify. Dollar Cost Averaging cannot be set up for the 29th through the 31st of the month. The minimum amount you can exchange to another Fund is $50. Certain financial advisers and other financial intermediaries may also offer dollar cost averaging programs. If you participate in one of these programs and it is the same or similar to Invesco’s Dollar Cost Averaging program, exchanges made under the program generally will not be counted toward the limitation of four exchanges out of a Fund per calendar year, discussed below.
 
Automatic Dividend and Distribution Investment
Your dividends and distributions may be paid in cash or reinvested in the same Fund or another Fund without paying an initial sales charge. Unless you specify otherwise, your dividends and distributions will automatically be reinvested in the same Fund. If you elect to receive your distributions by check, and the distribution amount is $10 or less, then the amount will be automatically reinvested in the same Fund and no check will be issued. If you have elected to receive distributions by check, and the postal service is unable to deliver checks to your address of record, then your distribution election may be converted to having all subsequent distributions reinvested in the same Fund and no checks will be issued. With respect to certain account types, if your check remains uncashed for six months, the Fund generally reserves the right to reinvest your distribution check in your account at NAV and to reinvest all subsequent distributions in shares of the Fund. Such checks will be reinvested into the same share class of the Fund unless you own shares in both Class A and Class B of the same Fund, in which case the check may be reinvested into the Class A shares. You should contact the transfer agent to change your distribution option, and your request to do so must be received by the transfer agent before the record date for a distribution in order to be effective for that distribution. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed distribution checks.
 
You must comply with the following requirements to be eligible to invest your dividends and distributions in shares of another Fund:
n  Your account balance in the Fund paying the dividend or distribution must be at least $5,000; and
n  Your account balance in the Fund receiving the dividend or distribution must be at least $500.
 
Portfolio Rebalancing Program
If you have at least $5,000 in your account, you may participate in the Portfolio Rebalancing Program. Under this Program, you can designate how the total value of your Fund holdings should be rebalanced, on a percentage basis, between two and ten of your Funds on a quarterly, semiannual or annual basis. Your portfolio will be rebalanced through the exchange of shares in one or more of your Funds for shares of the same class of one or more other Funds in your portfolio. Rebalancing will not occur if your portfolio is within 2% of your stated allocation. If you wish to participate in the Program, make changes or cancel the Program, the transfer agent must receive your request to participate, changes, or cancellation in good order at least five business days prior to the next rebalancing date, which is normally the 28th day of the last month of the period you choose. We may modify, suspend or terminate the Program at any time on 60 days’ prior written notice to participating investors. Certain financial advisers and other financial intermediaries may also offer portfolio rebalancing programs. If you participate in one of these programs and it is the same as or similar to Invesco’s program, exchanges made under the program generally will not be counted toward the limitation of four exchanges out of a Fund per calendar year, discussed below.
 
Redeeming Shares
For Funds other than Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio, the transfer agent or authorized intermediary, if applicable, must receive your call during the hours of the
 
A-7        The Invesco Funds


 

customary trading session of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in order to effect the redemption at that day’s net asset value. For Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio, the transfer agent or authorized intermediary, if applicable, must receive your call before the Funds’ net asset value determination in order to effect the redemption that day.
 
     
How to Redeem Shares
 
Through a Financial Adviser or Financial Intermediary   Contact your financial adviser or financial intermediary (including your retirement plan administrator).
By Mail   Send a written request to the transfer agent which includes:
   
n Original signatures of all registered owners/trustees;
   
n The dollar value or number of shares that you wish to redeem;
   
n The name of the Fund(s) and your account number; and
   
n Signature guarantees, if necessary (see below).
    The transfer agent may require that you provide additional documentation, or information, such as corporate resolutions or powers of attorney, if applicable. If you are redeeming from an IRA or other type of retirement account, you must complete the appropriate distribution form, as well as employer authorization.
By Telephone   Call the transfer agent at 1-800-959-4246. You will be allowed to redeem by telephone if:
   
n Your redemption proceeds are to be mailed to your address on record (and there has been no change in your address of record within the last 30 days) or transferred electronically to a pre-authorized checking account;
   
n You do not hold physical share certificates;
   
n You can provide proper identification information;
   
n Your redemption proceeds do not exceed $250,000 per Fund; and
   
n You have not previously declined the telephone redemption privilege.
    You may, in limited circumstances, initiate a redemption from an Invesco IRA account by telephone. Redemptions from other types of retirement plan accounts may be initiated only in writing and require the completion of the appropriate distribution form, as well as employer authorization.
Automated Investor Line   Call the Invesco Investment Services, Inc. 24-hour Automated Investor Line at 1-800-246-5463. You may place your redemption order after you have provided the bank instructions that will be requested.
By Internet   Place your redemption request at www.invesco.com/us. You will be allowed to redeem by Internet if:
   
n You do not hold physical share certificates;
   
n You can provide proper identification information;
   
n Your redemption proceeds do not exceed $250,000 per Fund; and
   
n You have already provided proper bank information.
    Redemptions from most retirement plan accounts may be initiated only in writing and require the completion of the appropriate distribution form, as well as employer authorization.
 
Timing and Method of Payment
We normally will send out payments within one business day, and in any event no more than seven days, after your redemption request is received in good order (meaning that all necessary information and documentation related to the redemption request have been provided to the transfer agent or authorized intermediary, if applicable). If you redeem shares recently purchased by check or ACH, you may be required to wait up to ten business days before we send your redemption proceeds. This delay is necessary to ensure that the purchase has cleared. Payment may be postponed under unusual circumstances, as allowed by the SEC, such as when the NYSE restricts or suspends trading.
 
Redemption checks are mailed to your address of record, via first class U.S. mail, unless you make other arrangements with the transfer agent.
 
We use reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated via telephone and the Internet are genuine, and we are not liable for losses arising from actions taken in accordance with instructions that are reasonably believed to be genuine.
 
Expedited Redemptions (Invesco Cash Reserve Shares of Invesco Money Market Fund only)
If you place your redemption order by telephone, before 11:30 a.m. Eastern Time and request an expedited redemption, we will transmit payment of redemption proceeds on that same day via federal wire to a bank of record on your account. If we receive your redemption order after 11:30 a.m. Eastern Time and before the close of the customary trading session of the NYSE, we will transmit payment on the next business day.
 
Systematic Withdrawals
You may arrange for regular periodic withdrawals from your account in amounts equal to or greater than $50 per Fund. We will redeem the appropriate number of shares from your account to provide redemption proceeds in the amount requested. You must have a total account balance of at least $5,000 in order to establish a Systematic Redemption Plan, unless you are establishing a Required Minimum Distribution for a retirement plan. You can stop this plan at any time by giving ten days prior notice to the transfer agent.
 
Check Writing
The transfer agent provides check writing privileges for accounts in the following Funds and share classes:
n  Invesco Money Market Fund, Invesco Cash Reserve Shares, Class A5 shares, Class Y shares and Investor Class shares
n  Invesco Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Class A shares, Class Y shares and Investor Class shares
n  Premier Portfolio, Investor Class shares
n  Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio, Investor Class shares
n  Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio, Investor Class shares
 
You may redeem shares of these Funds by writing checks in amounts of $250 or more if you have subscribed to the service by completing a Check Writing authorization form.
 
Redemption by check is not available for retirement accounts. Checks are not eligible to be converted to ACH by the payee. You may not give authorization to a payee by phone to debit your account by ACH for a debt owed to the payee.
 
Signature Guarantees
We require a signature guarantee in the following circumstances:
n  When your redemption proceeds will equal or exceed $250,000 per Fund.
n  When you request that redemption proceeds be paid to someone other than the registered owner of the account.
n  When you request that redemption proceeds be sent somewhere other than the address of record or bank of record on the account.
n  When you request that redemption proceeds be sent to a new address or an address that changed in the last 30 days.
 
The transfer agent will accept a guarantee of your signature by a number of different types of financial institutions. Call the transfer agent for additional information. Some institutions have transaction amount maximums for these guarantees. Please check with the guarantor institution to determine whether the signature guarantee offered will be sufficient to cover the value of your transaction request.
 
Redemptions in Kind
Although the Funds generally intend to pay redemption proceeds solely in cash, the Funds reserve the right to determine, in their sole discretion, whether to satisfy redemption requests by making payment in securities or other property (known as a redemption in kind).
 
A-8        The Invesco Funds


 

Redemptions Initiated by the Funds
If your account (Class A, B, C, P, S and Investor Class shares only) has been open at least one year, you have not made an additional purchase in the account during the past six calendar months, and the value of your account falls below $500 for three consecutive months, the Funds have the right to redeem the account after giving you 60 days’ prior written notice. You may avoid having your account redeemed during the notice period by bringing the account value up to $500 or by initiating a Systematic Purchase Plan.
 
If the Fund determines that you have not provided a correct Social Security or other tax identification number on your account application, or the Fund is not able to verify your identity as required by law, the Fund may, at its discretion, redeem the account and distribute the proceeds to you.
 
Exchanging Shares
You may, under certain circumstances, exchange shares in one Fund for those of another Fund. An exchange is the purchase of shares in one Fund which is paid for with the proceeds from a redemption of shares of another Fund effectuated on the same day. Any gain on the transaction may be subject to federal income tax. Accordingly, the procedures and processes applicable to redemptions of Fund shares, as discussed under the heading “Redeeming Shares” above, will apply. Before requesting an exchange, review the prospectus of the Fund you wish to acquire.
 
All exchanges are subject to the limitations set forth in the prospectuses of the Funds. If you wish to exchange shares of one Fund for those of another Fund, you must consult the prospectus of the Fund whose shares you wish to acquire to determine whether the Fund is offering shares to new investors and whether you are eligible to acquire shares of that Fund.
 
Permitted Exchanges
Except as otherwise provided herein or in the SAI, you generally may exchange your shares for shares of the same class of another Fund. The following below shows permitted exchanges:

Please consult your financial adviser to discuss the tax implications, if any, of all exchanges into Class Y shares of the same Fund.
 
Exchanges into Invesco Van Kampen Senior Loan Fund
Invesco Van Kampen Senior Loan Fund is a closed-end fund that continuously offers its shares pursuant to the terms and conditions of its prospectus. The Adviser is the investment adviser for the Invesco Van Kampen Senior Loan Fund. As with the Invesco Funds, you generally may exchange your shares of Class A (Invesco Cash Reserve Shares of Invesco Money Market Fund), Class B or Class C of any Invesco Fund for shares of Class A, Class B or Class C, respectively, of Invesco Van Kampen Senior Loan Fund. Please refer to the prospectus for the Invesco Van Kampen Senior Loan Fund for more information, including limitations on exchanges out of Invesco Van Kampen Senior Loan Fund.
 
Exchanges Not Permitted
The following exchanges are not permitted:
n  Investor Class shares cannot be exchanged for Class A shares of any Fund which offers Investor Class shares.
n  Exchanges into Class A2 shares of Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and Invesco Tax-Free Intermediate Fund (also known as the Category III Funds) are not permitted.
n  Class A2 shares of Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund and Invesco Tax-Free Intermediate Fund cannot be exchanged for Class A shares of those Funds.
n  Invesco Cash Reserve Shares cannot be exchanged for Class B, C or R shares if the shares being exchanged were acquired by exchange from Class A shares of any Fund.
n  Invesco Cash Reserve shares, Class A shares, Class A2 shares, Class C shares or Investor Class shares of one Fund can not be exchanged for Class Y shares of a different Fund.
n  All existing systematic exchanges and reallocations will cease and these options will no longer be available on all 403(b) prototype plans.
 
Exchange Conditions
The following conditions apply to all exchanges:
n  Shares must have been held for at least one day prior to the exchange with the exception of dividends and distributions that are reinvested; and
n  If you have physical share certificates, you must return them to the transfer agent in order to effect the exchange.
 
Under unusual market conditions, a Fund may delay the exchange of shares for up to five business days if it determines that it would be materially disadvantaged by the immediate transfer of exchange proceeds. The exchange privilege is not an option or right to purchase shares. Any of the participating Funds or the distributor may modify or terminate this privilege at any time.
 
Limit on the Number of Exchanges
You will generally be limited to four exchanges out of a Fund per calendar year (other than the money market funds and Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund); provided, however, that the following transactions will not count toward the exchange limitation:
n  Exchanges of shares held in accounts maintained by intermediaries that do not have the systematic capability to apply the exchange limitation.
n  Exchanges of shares held by Funds of Funds, qualified tuition plans maintained pursuant to Section 529 of the Code, and insurance company separate accounts which use the Funds as underlying investments.
n  Generally, exchanges effectuated pursuant to automatic investment rebalancing or dollar cost averaging programs.
n  Generally, exchanges on fee-based advisory accounts which involve a periodic rebalancing feature.
n  Exchanges initiated by a Fund or by the trustee, administrator or other fiduciary of an employee benefit plan (not in response to distribution or exchange instructions received from a plan participant).
 
Each Fund reserves the discretion to accept exchanges in excess of these guidelines on a case-by-case basis if the Fund, or its designated agent, believes that granting such exceptions would be consistent with the best interests of shareholders.
 
There is no limit on the number of exchanges out of Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund, Invesco Money Market Fund, Invesco Tax-Exempt
 
A-9        The Invesco Funds


 

Cash Fund, Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio.
 
If you exchange shares of one Fund for shares of multiple other Funds as part of a single transaction, that transaction is counted as one exchange out of a Fund.
 
Initial Sales Charges, CDSCs and 12b-1 Fees on Applicable to Exchanges
You may be required to pay an initial sales charge when exchanging from a Fund with a lower initial sales charge than the one into which you are exchanging. If you exchange into shares that are subject to a CDSC, we will begin the holding period for purposes of calculating the CDSC on the date you made your initial purchase.
 
In addition, as a result of differences in the forms of distribution plans and distribution plans and service plans among the Funds, certain exchanges of Class A shares, Class B shares, Class C shares, and Class R shares of a Fund for the same class of shares of another fund may result in investors paying a higher or a lower 12b-1 fee on the Fund being exchanged into. Please refer to the prospectus fee table and financial highlights table and the statement of additional information for more information on the fees and expenses, including applicable 12b-1 fees, of the Fund you wish to acquire.
 
Rights Reserved by the Funds
Each Fund and its agents reserve the right at any time to:
n  Reject or cancel all or any part of any purchase or exchange order.
n  Modify any terms or conditions related to the purchase, redemption or exchange of shares of any Fund.
n  Reject or cancel any request to establish a Systematic Purchase Plan, Systematic Redemption Plan or Portfolio Rebalancing Program.
n  Suspend, change or withdraw all or any part of the offering made by this prospectus.
 
Excessive Short-Term Trading Activity (Market Timing) Disclosures
While the Funds provide their shareholders with daily liquidity, their investment programs are designed to serve long-term investors and are not designed to accommodate excessive short-term trading activity in violation of our policies described below. Excessive short-term trading activity in the Funds’ shares (i.e., a purchase of Fund shares followed shortly thereafter by a redemption of such shares, or vice versa) may hurt the long-term performance of certain Funds by requiring them to maintain an excessive amount of cash or to liquidate portfolio holdings at a disadvantageous time, thus interfering with the efficient management of such Funds by causing them to incur increased brokerage and administrative costs. Where excessive short-term trading activity seeks to take advantage of arbitrage opportunities from stale prices for portfolio securities, the value of Fund shares held by long-term investors may be diluted. The Board has adopted policies and procedures designed to discourage excessive or short-term trading of Fund shares for all Funds except the money market funds. However, there is the risk that these Funds’ policies and procedures will prove ineffective in whole or in part to detect or prevent excessive or short-term trading. These Funds may alter their policies at any time without prior notice to shareholders if the adviser believes the change would be in the best interests of long-term shareholders.
 
The Invesco Affiliates and certain of its corporate affiliates (Invesco and such affiliates, collectively, the Invesco Affiliates) currently use the following tools designed to discourage excessive short-term trading in the retail Funds:
n  Trade activity monitoring.
n  Trading guidelines.
n  Redemption fees on trades in certain Funds.
n  The use of fair value pricing consistent with procedures approved by the Board.
 
Each of these tools is described in more detail below. Although these tools are designed to discourage excessive short-term trading, you should understand that none of these tools alone nor all of them taken together eliminate the possibility that excessive short-term trading activity in the Funds will occur. Moreover, each of these tools involves judgments that are inherently subjective. Invesco Affiliates seek to make these judgments to the best of their abilities in a manner that they believe is consistent with long-term shareholder interests.
 
Money Market Funds. The Board of Invesco Money Market Fund, Invesco Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio (the money market funds) have not adopted any policies and procedures that would limit frequent purchases and redemptions of such Funds’ shares. The Board considered the risks of not having a specific policy that limits frequent purchases and redemptions, and determined that those risks were minimal. Nonetheless, to the extent that a money market fund must maintain additional cash and/or securities with short-term durations in greater amounts than may otherwise be required or borrow to honor redemption requests, the money market fund’s yield could be negatively impacted.
 
The Board does not believe that it is appropriate to adopt any such policies and procedures for the money market funds for the following reasons:
n  The money market funds are offered to investors as cash management vehicles; investors must perceive an investment in such Funds as an alternative to cash, and must be able to purchase and redeem shares regularly and frequently.
n  One of the advantages of a money market fund as compared to other investment options is liquidity. Any policy that diminishes the liquidity of the money market funds will be detrimental to the continuing operations of such Funds.
n  The money market funds’ portfolio securities are valued on the basis of amortized cost, and such Funds seek to maintain a constant net asset value. As a result, there are no price arbitrage opportunities.
n  Because the money market funds seek to maintain a constant net asset value, investors expect to receive upon redemption the amount they originally invested in such Funds. Imposition of redemption fees would run contrary to investor expectations.
 
Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund. The Board of Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund has not adopted any policies and procedures that would limit frequent purchases and redemptions of such Fund’s shares. The Board considered the risks of not having a specific policy that limits frequent purchases and redemptions and determined that those risks were minimal. Nonetheless, to the extent that Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund must maintain additional cash and/or securities with short-term durations in greater amounts than may otherwise be required or borrow to honor redemption requests, Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund’s yield could be negatively impacted.
 
The Board does not believe that it is appropriate to adopt any such policies and procedures for the Fund for the following reasons:
n  Many investors use Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund as a short-term investment alternative and should be able to purchase and redeem shares regularly and frequently.
n  One of the advantages of Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund as compared to other investment options is liquidity. Any policy that diminishes the liquidity of Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund will be detrimental to the continuing operations of such Fund.
 
Trade Activity Monitoring
Invesco Affiliates monitor selected trades on a daily basis in an effort to detect excessive short-term trading activities. If, as a result of this monitoring, Invesco Affiliates believe that a shareholder has engaged in excessive short-term trading, they will seek to act in a manner that they believe is consistent with the best interests of long-term investors, which may include taking steps such as (i) asking the shareholder to take action
 
A-10        The Invesco Funds


 

to stop such activities or (ii) refusing to process future purchases or exchanges related to such activities in the shareholder’s accounts other than exchanges into a money market Fund. Invesco Affiliates will use reasonable efforts to apply the Fund’s policies uniformly given the practical limitations described above.
 
The ability of Invesco Affiliates to monitor trades that are made through accounts that are maintained by intermediaries (rather than the Funds’ transfer agent) and through conduit investment vehicles may be limited.
 
Trading Guidelines
You will be limited to four exchanges out of a Fund per calendar year (other than the money market funds and Invesco Limited Maturity Treasury Fund). If you meet the four exchange limit within a Fund in a calendar year, or a Fund or an Invesco Affiliate determines, in its sole discretion, that your short-term trading activity is excessive (regardless of whether or not you exceed such guidelines), it may, in its sole discretion, reject any additional purchase and exchange orders.
 
Redemption Fees
You may be charged a 2% redemption fee if you redeem, including redeeming by exchange, shares of certain Funds within 31 days of purchase. The ability of a Fund to assess a redemption fee on redemptions effectuated through accounts that are maintained by intermediaries (rather than the Funds’ transfer agent) and through conduit investment vehicles may be limited.
 
Fair Value Pricing
Securities owned by a Fund are to be valued at current market value if market quotations are readily available. All other securities and assets of a Fund for which market quotations are not readily available are to be valued at fair value determined in good faith using procedures approved by the Board. Fair value pricing may reduce the ability of frequent traders to take advantage of arbitrage opportunities resulting from potentially “stale” prices of portfolio holdings. However, it cannot eliminate the possibility of frequent trading.
 
Pricing of Shares
 
Determination of Net Asset Value
The price of each Fund’s shares is the Fund’s net asset value per share. The Funds value portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available at market value. The Funds value all other securities and assets for which market quotations are unavailable or unreliable at their fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Boards of Trustees of the Funds (collectively, the Board). The Board has delegated the daily determination of good faith fair value methodologies to Invesco’s Valuation Committee, which acts in accordance with Board approved policies. On a quarterly basis, Invesco provides the Board various reports indicating the quality and effectiveness of its fair value decisions on portfolio holdings. Securities and other assets quoted in foreign currencies are valued in U.S. dollars based on the prevailing exchange rates on that day.
 
Even when market quotations are available, they may be stale or unreliable because the security is not traded frequently, trading on the security ceased before the close of the trading market or issuer specific events occurred after the security ceased trading or because of the passage of time between the close of the market on which the security trades and the close of the NYSE and when the Fund calculates its net asset value. Issuer specific events may cause the last market quotation to be unreliable. Such events may include a merger or insolvency, events which affect a geographical area or an industry segment, such as political events or natural disasters, or market events, such as a significant movement in the U.S. market. Where market quotations are not readily available, including where Invesco determines that the closing price of the security is unreliable, Invesco will value the security at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Board. Fair value pricing may reduce the ability of frequent traders to take advantage of arbitrage opportunities resulting from potentially “stale” prices of portfolio holdings. However, it cannot eliminate the possibility of frequent trading.
 
Fair value is that amount that the owner might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale. Fair value requires consideration of all appropriate factors, including indications of fair value available from pricing services. A fair value price is an estimated price and may vary from the prices used by other mutual funds to calculate their net asset values.
 
Invesco may use indications of fair value from pricing services approved by the Board. In other circumstances, the Invesco Valuation Committee may fair value securities in good faith using procedures approved by the Board. As a means of evaluating its fair value process, Invesco routinely compares closing market prices, the next day’s opening prices for the security in its primary market if available, and indications of fair value from other sources. Fair value pricing methods and pricing services can change from time to time as approved by the Board.
 
Specific types of securities are valued as follows:
 
Senior Secured Floating Rate Loans and Senior Secured Floating Rate Debt Securities. Senior secured floating rate loans and senior secured floating rate debt securities are fair valued using evaluated quotes provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated quotes provided by the pricing service may reflect appropriate factors such as market quotes, ratings, tranche type, industry, company performance, spread, individual trading characteristics, institution-size trading in similar groups of securities and other market data.
 
Domestic Exchange Traded Equity Securities. Market quotations are generally available and reliable for domestic exchange traded equity securities. If market quotations are not available or are unreliable, Invesco will value the security at fair value in good faith using procedures approved by the Board.
 
Foreign Securities. If market quotations are available and reliable for foreign exchange traded equity securities, the securities will be valued at the market quotations. Because trading hours for certain foreign securities end before the close of the NYSE, closing market quotations may become unreliable. If between the time trading ends on a particular security and the close of the customary trading session on the NYSE events occur that are significant and may make the closing price unreliable, the Fund may fair value the security. If an issuer specific event has occurred that Invesco determines, in its judgment, is likely to have affected the closing price of a foreign security, it will price the security at fair value. Invesco also relies on a screening process from a pricing vendor to indicate the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trades is not the current market value as of the close of the NYSE. For foreign securities where Invesco believes, at the approved degree of certainty, that the price is not reflective of current market value, Invesco will use the indication of fair value from the pricing service to determine the fair value of the security. The pricing vendor, pricing methodology or degree of certainty may change from time to time.
 
Fund securities primarily traded on foreign markets may trade on days that are not business days of the Fund. Because the net asset value of Fund shares is determined only on business days of the Fund, the value of the portfolio securities of a Fund that invests in foreign securities may change on days when you will not be able to purchase or redeem shares of the Fund.
 
Fixed Income Securities. Government, corporate, asset-backed and municipal bonds, convertible securities, including high yield or junk bonds, and loans, normally are valued on the basis of prices provided by independent pricing services. Prices provided by the pricing services may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to special securities, dividend rate, maturity and other market data. Prices received from pricing services are fair value prices. In addition, if the price provided by the pricing service
 
A-11        The Invesco Funds


 

and independent quoted prices are unreliable, the Invesco valuation committee will fair value the security using procedures approved by the Board.
 
Short-term Securities. The Funds’ short-term investments are valued at amortized cost when the security has 60 days or less to maturity. Invesco Money Market Fund, Invesco Tax-Exempt Cash Fund, Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio value all their securities at amortized cost. Invesco High Income Municipal Fund, Invesco Municipal Bond Fund and Invesco Tax-Free Intermediate Fund value variable rate securities that have an unconditional demand or put feature exercisable within seven days or less at par, which reflects the market value of such securities.
 
Futures and Options. Futures contracts are valued at the final settlement price set by the exchange on which they are principally traded. Options are valued on the basis of market quotations, if available.
 
Swap Agreements. Swap Agreements are fair valued using an evaluated quote provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated quotes provided by the pricing service are based on a model that may include end of day net present values, spreads, ratings, industry and company performance.
 
Open-end Funds. To the extent a Fund invests in other open-end Funds, other than open-end Funds that are exchange traded, the investing Fund will calculate its net asset value using the net asset value of the underlying Fund in which it invests, and the prospectuses for such open-end Funds explain the circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing.
 
Each Fund, except for Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio, determines the net asset value of its shares on each day the NYSE is open for business (a business day), as of the close of the customary trading session, or earlier NYSE closing time that day. Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio open for business at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time. Premier Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio will generally determine the net asset value of their shares at 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio will generally determine the net asset value of its shares at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio are authorized not to open for trading on a day that is otherwise a business day if the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and The Bank of New York Mellon, the Fund’s custodian, are not open for business or the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) recommends that government securities dealers not open for trading and any such day will not be considered a business day. Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio also may close early on a business day if SIFMA recommends that government securities dealers close early. If Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio or Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio uses its discretion to close early on a business day, the Fund will calculate its net asset value as of the time of such closing.
 
From time to time and in circumstances deemed appropriate by Invesco in its sole discretion, each of Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio may remain open for business, during customary business day hours, on a day that the NYSE is closed for business. In such event, on such day you will be permitted to purchase or redeem shares of such Funds and net asset values will be calculated for such Funds.
 
The Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund and Invesco Commodities Strategy Fund may each invest up to 25% of their total assets in shares of their respective Subsidiaries. The Subsidiaries offer to redeem all or a portion of their shares at the current net asset value per share every regular business day. The value of shares of the Subsidiaries will fluctuate with the value of the respective Subsidiary’s portfolio investments. The Subsidiaries price their portfolio investments pursuant to the same pricing and valuation methodologies and procedures used by the Funds, which require, among other things, that each of the Subsidiary’s portfolio investments be marked-to-market (that is, the value on each of the Subsidiary’s books changes) each business day to reflect changes in the market value of the investment.
 
Timing of Orders
For Funds other than Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio, you can purchase or redeem shares on each business day prior to the close of the customary trading session or any earlier NYSE closing time that day. For Funds other than Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio, purchase orders that are received and accepted before the close of the customary trading session or any earlier NYSE closing time on a business day generally are processed that day and settled on the next business day.
 
For Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio, you can purchase or redeem shares on each business day, prior to the Funds’ net asset value determination on such business day; however, if your order is received and accepted after the close of the customary trading session or any earlier NYSE closing time that day, your order generally will be processed on the next business day and settled on the second business day following the receipt and acceptance of your order.
 
For all Funds, you can exchange shares on each business day, prior to the close of the customary trading session or any earlier NYSE closing time that day. Shareholders of Premier Portfolio, Premier Tax-Exempt Portfolio and Premier U.S. Government Money Portfolio therefore cannot exchange their shares after the close of the customary trading session or any earlier NYSE closing time on a particular day, even though these Funds remain open after such closing time.
 
The Funds price purchase, exchange and redemption orders at the net asset value calculated after the transfer agent receives an order in good order. Any applicable sales charges are applied at the time an order is processed. A Fund may postpone the right of redemption only under unusual circumstances, as allowed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as when the NYSE restricts or suspends trading.
 
Taxes
A Fund intends to qualify each year as a regulated investment company and, as such, is not subject to entity-level tax on the income and gain it distributes to shareholders. If you are a taxable investor, dividends and distributions you receive from a Fund generally are taxable to you whether you reinvest distributions in additional Fund shares or take them in cash. Every year, you will be sent information showing the amount of dividends and distributions you received from a Fund during the prior calendar year. In addition, investors in taxable accounts should be aware of the following basic tax points as supplemented below where relevant:
 
Fund Tax Basics
n  A Fund earns income generally in the form of dividends or interest on its investments. This income, less expenses incurred in the operation of a Fund, constitutes the Fund’s net investment income from which dividends may be paid to you. If you are a taxable investor, distributions of net investment income are generally taxable to you as ordinary income.
n  Distributions of net short-term capital gains are taxable to you as ordinary income. A Fund with a high portfolio turnover rate (a measure of how frequently assets within a Fund are bought and sold) is more likely to generate short-term capital gains than a Fund with a low portfolio turnover rate.
n  Distributions of net long-term capital gains are taxable to you as long-term capital gains no matter how long you have owned your Fund shares.
n  If you are an individual and meet certain holding period requirements, a portion of income dividends paid to you by a Fund may be designated as qualified dividend income eligible for taxation at long-term capital
 
A-12        The Invesco Funds


 

gain rates. These reduced rates generally are available (through 2010) for dividends derived from a Fund’s investment in stocks of domestic corporations and qualified foreign corporations. In the case of a Fund that invests primarily in debt securities, either none or only a nominal portion of the dividends paid by the Fund will be eligible for taxation at these reduced rates.
n  Distributions declared to shareholders with a record date in December—if paid to you by the end of January—are taxable for federal income tax purposes as if received in December.
n  Any long-term or short-term capital gains realized from redemptions of Fund shares will be subject to federal income tax. For tax purposes, an exchange of your shares for shares of another Fund is the same as a sale.
n  At the time you purchase your Fund shares, the Fund’s net asset value may reflect undistributed income, undistributed capital gains, or net unrealized appreciation in value of portfolio securities held by the Fund. A subsequent distribution to you of such amounts, although constituting a return of your investment, would be taxable. This is sometimes referred to as ”buying a dividend.”
n  By law, if you do not provide a Fund with your proper taxpayer identification number and certain required certifications, you may be subject to backup withholding on any distributions of income, capital gains, or proceeds from the sale of your shares. A Fund also must withhold if the IRS instructs it to do so. When withholding is required, the amount will be 28% of any distributions or proceeds paid.
n  You will not be required to include the portion of dividends paid by the Fund derived from interest on U.S. government obligations in your gross income for purposes of personal and, in some cases, corporate income taxes in many state and local tax jurisdictions. The percentage of dividends that constitutes dividends derived from interest on federal obligations will be determined annually. This percentage may differ from the actual percentage of interest received by the Fund on federal obligations for the particular days on which you hold shares.
n  Fund distributions and gains from sale or exchange of your Fund shares generally are subject to state and local income taxes.
n  If a Fund qualifies to pass through to you the tax benefits from foreign taxes it pays on its investments, and elects to do so, then any foreign taxes it pays on these investments may be passed through to you as a foreign tax credit. You will then be required to include your pro-rata share of these taxes in gross income, even though not actually received by you, and will be entitled either to deduct your share of these taxes in computing your taxable income, or to claim a foreign tax credit for these taxes against your U.S. federal income tax.
n  Foreign investors should be aware that U.S. withholding, special certification requirements to avoid U.S. backup withholding and claim any treaty benefits and estate taxes may apply to an investment in a Fund.
 
The above discussion concerning the taxability of Fund dividends and distributions and of redemptions and exchanges of Fund shares is inapplicable to investors that are generally exempt from federal income tax, such as retirement plans that are qualified under Section 401, 403, 408, 408A and 457 of the Code, individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and Roth IRAs.
 
Tax-Exempt and Municipal Funds
n  You will not be required to include the “exempt-interest” portion of dividends paid by the Fund in your gross income for federal income tax purposes. You will be required to report the receipt of exempt-interest dividends and other tax-exempt interest on your federal income tax returns. The percentage of dividends that constitutes exempt-interest dividends will be determined annually. This percentage may differ from the actual percentage of exempt interest received by the Fund for the particular days in which you hold shares.
n  A Fund may invest in municipal securities the interest on which constitutes an item of tax preference and could give rise to a federal alternative minimum tax liability for you. However, under recently enacted provisions of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, tax exempt interest on such municipal securities issued in 2009 and 2010 is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the alternative minimum tax.
n  Exempt-interest dividends from interest earned on municipal securities of a state, or its political subdivisions, generally are exempt from that state’s personal income tax. Most states, however, do not grant tax-free treatment to interest from municipal securities of other states.
n  A Fund may invest a portion of its assets in securities that pay income that is not tax-exempt. To the extent that dividends paid by a Fund are derived from taxable investments or realized capital gains, they will be taxable as ordinary income or long-term capital gains.
n  A Fund may distribute to you any market discount and net short-term capital gains from the sale of its portfolio securities. If you are a taxable investor, Fund distributions from this income are taxable to you as ordinary income, and generally will neither qualify for the dividends received deduction in the case of corporate shareholders nor as qualified dividend income subject to reduced rates of taxation in the case of noncorporate shareholders.
n  Exempt-interest dividends from a Fund are taken into account when determining the taxable portion of your social security or railroad retirement benefits, may be subject to state and local income taxes, may affect the deductibility of interest on certain indebtedness, and may have other collateral federal income tax consequences for you.
n  There are risks that: (a) a security issued as tax-exempt may be reclassified by the Internal Revenue Service or a state tax authority as taxable and/or (b) future legislative, administrative or court actions could adversely impact the qualification of income from a tax-exempt security as tax-free. Such reclassifications or actions could cause interest from a security to become taxable, possibly retroactively, subjecting you to increased tax liability. In addition, such reclassifications or actions could cause the value of a security, and therefore, the value of the Fund’s shares, to decline.
 
Money Market Funds
n  A Fund does not anticipate realizing any long-term capital gains.
n  Because a Fund expects to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share, investors should not have any gain or loss on sale or exchange of Fund shares.
 
Real Estate Funds
n  Because of “noncash” expenses such as property depreciation, the cash flow of a REIT that owns properties will exceed its taxable income. The REIT, and in turn a Fund, may distribute this excess cash to shareholders. Such a distribution is classified as a return of capital. Return-of capital distributions generally are not taxable to you. Your cost basis in your Fund shares will be decreased by the amount of any return of capital. Any return of capital distributions in excess of your cost basis will be treated as capital gains.
n  Dividends paid to shareholders from the Funds’ investments in U.S. REITs will not generally qualify for taxation at long-term capital gain rates applicable to qualified dividend income.
n  The Fund may derive “excess inclusion income” from certain equity interests in mortgage pooling vehicles either directly or through an investment in a U.S.-qualified REIT. If, contrary to expectations, the Fund were to receive excess inclusion income in excess of certain threshold amounts, such income would be allocated to Fund shareholders with special tax consequences.
n  The sale of a U.S. real property interest by a REIT in which a Fund invests may trigger special tax consequences to the Fund’s foreign shareholders.
 
A-13        The Invesco Funds


 

 
Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund and Invesco Commodities Strategy Fund
n  The Funds’ strategies of investing in derivatives and financially-linked instruments whose performance is expected to correspond to the fixed income, equity and commodity markets may cause the Funds to recognize more ordinary income and short-term capital gains taxable as ordinary income than would be the case if the Funds invested directly in debt instruments, stocks and commodities.
n  The Funds must meet certain requirements under the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) for favorable tax treatment as a regulated investment company, including asset diversification and income requirements. The Funds intend to treat the income each derives from commodity-linked notes and their respective Subsidiaries as qualifying income. If, contrary to a number of private letter rulings (PLRs) issued by the IRS to third-parties, the IRS were to determine such income is non qualifying, a Fund might fail to satisfy the income requirement. The Funds intend to limit their investments in their respective Subsidiaries to no more than 25% of the value of each Fund’s total assets in order to satisfy the asset diversification requirement. Additionally, the Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund has received a private letter ruling (PLR) from the IRS holding that the Invesco Balanced-Risk Allocation Fund’s income derived from its Subsidiary’s investments in commodity-linked derivatives is qualifying income.
 
Invesco FX Alpha Strategy Fund, Invesco FX Alpha Plus Strategy Fund and Invesco Emerging Market Local Currency Debt Fund
n  The Funds may realize gains from the sale or other disposition of foreign currencies (including but not limited to gains from options, futures or forward contracts) derived from investing in securities or foreign currencies. The U.S. Treasury Department is authorized to issue regulations that might cause the Funds, as a result of their realization of such foreign currency gains, to fail to qualify as a regulated investment company. As of the date of this prospectus, no regulations have been issued pursuant to this authorization. It is possible, however, that such regulations may be issued in the future. Additionally, the IRS has not issued any guidance on how to apply the asset diversification test to such foreign currency positions. Thus, the IRS’ determination as to how to treat such foreign currency positions for purposes of satisfying the asset diversification test might differ from that of the Funds, which may result in either of the Funds’ failure to qualify as regulated investment companies.
 
Invesco Van Kampen Equity Premium Income Fund
n  If as a result of adverse market conditions, the Fund realizes a loss in connection with its option writing strategy, some or all of the Fund’s previously distributed income may be classified as a return of capital. Return of capital distributions generally are not taxable to you. Your cost basis in your Fund shares will be decreased by the amount of any return of capital. Any return of capital distributions in excess of your cost basis will be treated as capital gains.
 
This discussion of “Taxes” is for general information only and not tax advice. All investors should consult their own tax advisers as to the federal, state, local and foreign tax provisions applicable to them.
 
Payments to Financial Intermediaries
The financial adviser or intermediary through which you purchase your shares may receive all or a portion of the sales charges and distribution fees discussed above. In addition to those payments, Invesco Distributors and other Invesco Affiliates, may make additional cash payments to financial intermediaries in connection with the promotion and sale of shares of the Funds. These additional cash payments may include cash payments and other payments for certain marketing and support services. Invesco Affiliates make these payments from their own resources, from Invesco Distributors’ retention of initial sales charges and from payments to Invesco Distributors made by the Funds under their 12b-1 plans. In the context of this prospectus, “financial intermediaries” include any broker, dealer, bank (including bank trust departments), registered investment adviser, financial planner, retirement plan administrator, insurance company and any other financial intermediary having a selling, administration or similar agreement with Invesco Affiliates.
 
Invesco Affiliates make payments as incentives to certain financial intermediaries to promote and sell shares of the Funds. The benefits Invesco Affiliates receive when they make these payments include, among other things, placing the Funds on the financial intermediary’s funds sales system, and access (in some cases on a preferential basis over other competitors) to individual members of the financial intermediary’s sales force or to the financial intermediary’s management. These payments are sometimes referred to as “shelf space” payments because the payments compensate the financial intermediary for including the Funds in its fund sales system (on its “sales shelf”). Invesco Affiliates compensate financial intermediaries differently depending typically on the level and/or type of considerations provided by the financial intermediary. The payments Invesco Affiliates make may be calculated based on sales of shares of the Funds (Sales-Based Payments), in which case the total amount of such payments shall not exceed 0.25% of the public offering price of all shares sold by the financial intermediary during the particular period. Payments may also be calculated based on the average daily net assets of the applicable Funds attributable to that particular financial intermediary (Asset-Based Payments), in which case the total amount of such cash payments shall not exceed 0.25% per annum of those assets during a defined period. Sales-Based Payments primarily create incentives to make new sales of shares of the Funds and Asset-Based Payments primarily create incentives to retain previously sold shares of the Funds in investor accounts. Invesco Affiliates may pay a financial intermediary either or both Sales-Based Payments and Asset-Based Payments.
 
Invesco Affiliates are motivated to make these payments as they promote the sale of Fund shares and the retention of those investments by clients of financial intermediary. To the extent financial intermediaries sell more shares of the Funds or retain shares of the Funds in their clients’ accounts, Invesco Affiliates benefit from the incremental management and other fees paid to Invesco Affiliates by the Funds with respect to those assets.
 
Invesco Affiliates also may make payments to certain financial intermediaries for certain administrative services, including record keeping and sub-accounting of shareholder accounts pursuant to a sub-transfer agency, omnibus account service or sub-accounting agreement. All fees payable by Invesco Affiliates under this category of services are charged back to the Funds, subject to certain limitations approved by the Board.
 
You can find further details in the Fund’s SAI about these payments and the services provided by financial intermediaries. In certain cases these payments could be significant to the financial intermediary. Your financial adviser may charge you additional fees or commissions other than those disclosed in this prospectus. You can ask your financial adviser about any payments it receives from Invesco Affiliates or the Funds, as well as about fees and/or commissions it charges.
 
Important Notice Regarding Delivery of Security Holder Documents

Mailing of your shareholder documents may be householded indefinitely unless you instruct us otherwise.
